III LATEs iii
The full sleeve slowly but surely gains in
popular favor.
Small colored pocket handkerchiefs OF
silk, muslin, linen, lawn snd batiste are in
high favors.
Full blouses are so much in favor that
the arrival of all sorts of belts follow as a
matter of course.
Plated null and nainsook chemisettes
are more becoming and more feminine than
the mannish looking linen fronts that have
been in vogue.
The newest fans are of gauge, crepe, or
lisse, and spangled all over the sticks as
well az the gauze, with red. blue, green,
gray. yellow, silver and gold tinsel dots OF
various sizes.
Lawn tennis rackets of oxidized silver are
fashionable lace pins.
Among the great number of parlor orna-
n1ents recently introduced is a miniature
basket OF champagne, in which is set a
small clock. The basket is gold, the bottles
enamel and the corks silver.
